Committed to Pawsitive Experiences!

Pet care experience

My lifelong passion for animals has fueled my desire to become your go-to pet sitter. I can't wait to meet your furry friend and provide them with the love they are used to while you're away. With a wealth of experience handling both cats and dogs, including those sharing a home, I am well-equipped to cater to the unique needs of each pet. As your in-home pet sitter, I offer more than just pet care – additional services such as pet bathing, light housekeeping, dishwashing, and laundry are available at my discretion and for an added fee. Feel free to reach out with any questions or concerns you may have. Please be aware that I maintain a Monday to Friday, 8 am to 4:30 pm commitment at my primary position, which may affect my availability during those hours. I am excited about the opportunity to care for your pet and become your preferred pet sitter. Thank you for considering my services!

Rio is always great with our silly, anxious, older dog. We always know that she's well cared for when we're able to book with Rio, and we really appreciate knowing that while we're away.

Rio was awesome and exactly the type of sitter we were looking for. Not only was all the expected work done perfectly - feeding the dogs, taking them out at the correct times, being punctual to the potty breaks we agreed on, etc., Rio also was extremely responsive to any queries we had or adjustments, hours were spent with the dogs giving them the attention and love we were hoping they got, and so much more. We will absolutely have Rio watch our dogs again and will recommend to all the other animal people in our lives.

Availability

While I maintain full-time weekday employment with regular office hours, I understand the importance of incorporating pet care seamlessly into my routine. While my weekdays are primarily dedicated to work from 8am to 4:30pm, I am open to mid-day animal sitting on a case-by-case basis aligning with my pre-existing work schedule. I prioritize creating a schedule that allows for dedicated time and attention to your pets, ensuring they receive the care and companionship they deserve outside of my work hours.
